Winter was talking at the SXSW Festival where his latest film as a director, Deep Web, premieres this week.

The film is about Silk Road, an online black-marketplace used for money laundering and its owner, who was arrested in 2013.

Winter also had some help from his Bill & Ted co-star Keanu Reeves on the project, who serves as the film's narrator.

"He started watching the earliest cuts of this movie a year ago, and was just super into it," Winter said. "It's really funny, because I asked him and I could tell he was waiting for me to ask. Because he was like, 'Yeah. Duh.'"

Despite his focus being on Deep Web, he said he didn't mind answering questions on Bill & Ted, too.

"We're trying to get the movie made... we're producing it and we're actively trying to get it made," said Winter. "We're not tired of it, but I think for our fans, we are eager to stop talking about and actually shoot the damn thing."
